Punjab Cabinet grants approval to allot land for setting up 100-bedded ESI hospital at Dera Bassi
Babushahi Bureau
Chandigarh, October 28, 2025: In order to provide quality and affordable healthcare to employees working in factories and industrial units of Dera Bassi and nearby areas, the Punjab Cabinet also gave nod to lease around four acres of land for setting up 100 bedded ESI hospital in Dera Bassi.
At present, employees in Dera Bassi and adjoining industrial zones rely on ESI facilities located in Ludhiana, Mohali, and Chandigarh, which are insufficient to meet the growing healthcare demand.
This step will reduce the patient load on existing ESI hospitals and promote industrial welfare and social security in Punjab’s key industrial belt.
